BALLADE OF THE OUTCASTS: THE VOICE OF THE WOMEN, by STUART MERRILL Poet's Biography First Line: We are the courtesans that creep Last Line: For we are hated of all men. | |||
We are the courtesans that creep Beyond the town's lamp-litten haze, Toward the bridges of the deep: We watch the dawn with sinful gaze, And dreaming of the golden days When Jesus hallowed Magdalen, We seek death in the river's maze: For we are hated of all men. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...BALLADE OF THE CHINESE LOVER by STUART MERRILL BALLADE OF THE OUTCASTS: THE ENVOY OF THE OUTCASTS by STUART MERRILL BALLADE OF THE OUTCASTS: THE VOICE OF THE CHILDREN by STUART MERRILL BALLADE OF THE OUTCASTS: THE VOICE OF THE MEN by STUART MERRILL THE FLOWER OF THE HEART by STUART MERRILL |
